The South Sudanese government and a Chinese contractor have suspended the construction of a major highway connecting to Uganda over quality.
The construction of Juba-Rumbek highway has been put on hold after a heavy downpour last month swept away some sections of the road, according to Taban Deng, the vice president in charge of Infrastructure.
